Incoming calls display the wrong caller ID Incoming calls sometimes display the wrong contact name. Its not every time, so its very confusing. It appears to hold onto the last whatsapp caller ID which then shows as the latest/new incoming call, instead of the new EXTERNAL number (not a whatsapp call) that is actually calling. I see other people have complained about this in the past (https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/2suar4/ios_8_bug_calls_sometimes_display_the_wrong/cnsxc1c/), but I have not seen any advice on how to fix the issue. Please help!
